Skills vs linked docs: where should AI agents' knowledge live?
IllustriousFault6218 · reddit · 2026-11-10
A developer rolling out AI workflows at work frames the tradeoff with a branch-naming example: duplicate rules into a skill (drift risk), link human docs from the skill (extra read), or use agents.md pointing at human docs. He abstracts it into two axes — trigger location (agents.md vs skill) and knowledge base (AI-specific vs human docs) — and asks how others solve it.
